[WIP] Empuzzled

Empuzzled


Features
-Plenty of mazes. A lot of small one following one larger one.
-A cool little storyline which you must pay deep attention to if you want to understand it fully.
-A new faction
-A scavenger hunt, which was going to be introduced in GHF, but I'm not so sure about that now...
-Several puzzeling tests to ponder (Exact amount I'm not sure about)
-A bank (There may be many bank mods out there, but still)
-A house that is fit for you tinkering mage types. Very Sotha-sil.

News
Unfortunately, I was working on it for a month or so when the Editer randomly saved it as a "TES" file, so I had to start over.
Also, the scavenger hunt is when I put a couple random items in a random place somewhere in Vvardenfell (Or Soltheim(spelling?) or Mournhold). This was going to be hosted at GHF, but it seems that the site was hacked by an arabian hacker... So if GHF doesn't go back up when I release this, then I'll have to host it here or somewhere else.

Another unfortunately, someone marked the only computer I could mod on with his territorial boundaries of filth.
It'll be a while before I can get windows up on this Macbook.

Although I'm fascinated and intrigued by puzzles, I suck at making them and doing them... So if anyone wants to contribute ideas for puzzles I may include them and include you in the credits on the ReadMe.

Progress

That's about it.

I think The Puzzlement is a good name for it .. mysterious and yet it sums it up succinctly. I do have some ideas to contribute however I'd be more comfortable with PMing them to you; if you don't mind .. they are secrets that my friend Ceran put in some of his puzzles and they are very surprising when they happen in the mod. He is no longer modding presently; so I know he won't mind. Besides, his mods were released for all to benefit from in the early days of Morrowind.

This is a shame about Great House Fliggerty .. I certainly hope the site goes up again; I never spent much time but did like it there. You can certainly host your scavenger hunt here .. we would love it! We need stuff like that to attract people once we make the move to the new site.

I will PM you some ideas.

Well, I said elsewhere and I repeat that a puzzle mod sounds wonderful. If you don't like "Puzzlement" as a title, how about "Empuzzled" - which sounds a bit like "Embezzled" and since you are doing a bank.. well maybe there could be some link there.... just a thought.

Thanks everyone! Fortunately, thanks to Fliggerty and friends, that GHF is back up and running, so I'll still be hosting the Scavenger Hunt there.
Unfortunately, I've already named the bank... Though it is a very bad name, so Embezzled is cool, so I can use that. Thanks!

Empuzzled for the main mod title and Embezzled for the bank would be hype! And I'm so glad to hear Great House of Fliggerty is back up ... think I'll stop in over there later today.

Thanks. And I'm glad you liked some of the PM'd ideas.

The downloads section at GHF still isn't working yet. But tell me when you think you'll get this done, and I'll tell you when I'll get that done. ;)

Ooooh oohh .. *jumping up & down* .. Fliggerty's here!! Right in our modding forum. Heya, Fliggerty, so nice to see you here. I'm used to seeing you in BGSF MW TESCS Forum and at Great House Fliggerty. I decided to unbecome a lurker there; even am flying the official forum skin.

Downloads are very hard to get operational again, aren't they? Over at Gamersroam its taking Blith a long time to get the Archived Morrowind Mod Library back up.

Oh ok ... a download script. Didn't know there was such a thing.

How are the puzzles coming along, Naajaw?

I recently dived into mod a bit, and finished the bank, (except for the scripts, which I'm paranoid of, because the last time I scripted, my mod was saved as a .TES)
And it is now called Embezzled, with the mod being Empuzzled.
Ooh, M'Aiq and Fliggerty!

It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Wonderful Naajaw. I think The_Wanderer is a scripter. Perhaps you could use him as an advisor?

Glad to hear this is coming along well. I'm really looking forward to a puzzle mod. And I'm glad you liked those names too.

I'm confused how doing scripting managed to change your mod file extension. That must have been some darn clever stuff you were doing. Mind you, my experience with scripting is quite limited, so I'm sure there's a thing or two or a bizillion I don't know about that stuff!

Yes that is bizarre how scripting would change the format type of the mod itself. Can that explain how that happened or was it a mystery? Even more fascinating if so ...

I hope they'll be challenged by it...
It sure is challenging to make, especially due to the fact that I'm limited when it comes to mesh and textures. I can only use vanilla game objects...

Anyways, to be the bearer of bad news, I can't work on it a lot right now.
My brother, whom I've ranted about many times, has officially pissed all over the only computer I have with boot camp, in addition to the fact that he's rarely seen off it.
But, as soon as I nag my Dad until he gets me one of his spare Windows disks, I'll have Morrowind, and the CS on the new laptop :D
It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Lots of interesting little things that could bode for a great mod. The bank is greatly appreciated!
